Oh shit!

I'm with Verizon! Excellent coverage. Only Cingular comes close.

I guess UW competes with Bally's and 24 Fitness too, huh?

IMA not opened to general public. At least not that I know of. You can come as a guest (accompanied by an eligible person).

Hahaha!

Oh wait, you meant the outdoor UW Rock? I should read the entire post next time...

I didn't realise it was open. I'll make sure to take pics tonight. (Get belay checked) Construcion pics And WTF?! It isn't free! $3 daily pass and $5 belay check?!

It's funny that it would've been MUCH cheaper to just buy a ticket than to send himself via cargo.

So is this hiking? Can't make it this weekend though.

Alright, where's my passport?!

Is it really that easy?

Woah! Are these Christians, or Muslims?!

Wow, that's a BAD analogy. That's like comparing solving a rubiks cube with running a marathon.

Well count me out. Rainier exp = 0. Unless you count Camp Muir hikes.

Dude, what porn sites are you browsing?! I haven't had a problem yet. There's spyware on my computer that launches a pop up everytime I connect to IE. Haven't had one since the new Google toolbar.

I can tie rope and that's about it.

Mind bringing along an absolute newb?

As I said earlier, I thought everyone on this site was under 25 by the way most people sprayed. I was really surprised when I attended my first pub club.

always thinking of yourself aren't you Mr. Selfish? This affects everyone.

All I am pissed about is the horrible traffic and the insane prices in the housing market.

Pork is gross. I abstain from it because I don't like the taste. Only time I can eat pork is if the pork flavour is masked by some strong marinade/sauce (ie: BBQ and curry) or it's thin and/or burnt to a crisp (ie: bacon, cold cuts, canadian bacon). Pork chops suck.

Is he gay? Otherwise, he's just a trendy mofo who believe what the media tells him. Gay is the new cool.

tsk tsk tsk. there was no discussion of "All social problems amongst minorities are a direct result of white racism", so stay on track. the issue is the status of a minority that has been in this country for ~200 years .... yes, 200 years. the fact that a minority on the average has such problems getting out of poverty after a 200 years time span undoubtedly questions the legacy of slavery, segregation and more recently general indifference (if not racism). Indeed. Blacks are different from other minorities because they've been here the longest. Racism and victim mentality is ingrained into black Americans. It's institutional--on both sides. New immigrants don't have that disadvantage because they haven't been poisoned by American racism so they have hope. They don't have an invisible wall keeping themselves down. Ignorance is bliss. Instead of sitting on their asses crying 'the man is keeping me down', new immigrants come here for a better life. Some are even entrepreneurial. Most have goals and dreams and as a result usually become very successful. However, this usually all disappears by the 3rd generation because their childrend have become comfortable with American life and are poisoned by American racism and aren't as motivated for success. You can see a disparity in the mindset of black Americans (blacks born here) versus African Americans (immigrants from Africa) for this very reason. Disclaimer: This doesn't apply to all black Americans, just the ones living in the ghettos. There are hard-working black Americans who push their kids to achieve. Not all black people blame the system. The same can be said for lower class white people. (Disillusionment with the American dream)

Hero? No. 'Earned' the medals? Technically, yes. However, I don't think she deserved them.

I'm not white. Also, I never mentioned slave reparations in any of my replies. It was just me expressing my intense hatred of those two charlatans. Sharpton and Jackson are not MLK or Ghandi. They're con-men feeding the flames of racial tension. One of my problem with them, is that they don't want equality, they want special rights. They want the law to look the other way when a black person commits a crime. There are many cases where Jesse Jackson and his rent-a-mob crew defend black people who are obviously guilty of the crime for which they are charged with. Claiming racism or injustice. This further perpetuates the victim mentality among blacks and thus causes further tension. This tension leads to further agression between blacks and whites, and then you have whites feeling more tension towards blacks. Viscious cycle. As for reparations, it's a very complex issue. It's not clear cut like the Jews or Japanese during WW2.
